    All coaches including the majors. Players seem to do good in AAA and come up and fizzle. Not pretty when 2-3 in the line-up could/should go back to the minors.
  2. MABB1959
    Why?
  3. MABB1959
    Pablo pulled in the 5th? Looks like he threw 91 pitches. I that high over 5?
  4. MABB1959
    He was having a decent day and then Kepler strikes out. Thinking the data analytics used by Rocco are flawed.
  5. MABB1959
    Thanks for that!

    Feeling less optimistic about the Lopez/Arraez trade. I think Arraez would have given the offense more than Lopez is for pitching. lopez is making $8 million more with 5.45 ERA while Arraez has a .327 average with 18 RBIs which would rank him 1st in BA and 3rd for RBIs.

    I think the budget should have money now that they got the TV deal but they won't spend, never really have and that is not going to change. Our limit seems to be 1-2 good players and fill the gaps with ?????????????
  8. MABB1959
    I keep thinking of them as trades. SWR is getting exciting. Austin Martin ho-hum so far but still excited.
  9. MABB1959
    I want the Twins to keep top prospects but they seem to have a harder time getting them ready for the MLB.
  10. MABB1959
    Hard to blame any losses on the pitchers. They rarely have a lead to work with and giving up 1-2 runs will most likely be a loss. It seems that Paddock is a bit better than Lopez based on stats but all of the pitchers are doing fine IMO.

    I would pay for MLB or a streaming service that allowed me to watch but they are black-out. We get 3 maybe 4 games to watch this year. One on TBS because they were playing NYY, one on Apple TV+ had to renew my subscription for $9.99 but will cancel after this month and 2 on FOX.
  12. MABB1959
    Kind of on topic at least for me. Twins make the playoffs (maybe an extra 4 games) and then cut salary (blaming the TV contract or lack there of). I would guess the Timberwolves gained thousand of fans, Meanwhile MN cannot even watch games on TV and probably losing thousands of fans.
  13. MABB1959
    Do you think attendance will cover the spending?
  14. MABB1959
    This all makes sense for sure. Miss the days of having a reliable power hitter at 1st or DH. I will be fun to see what Lewis will do but right now it is a sad team to follow. Also, I can't watch the team so assumptions of no team chemistry.
  15. MABB1959
    Probably never going to have a competitive payroll. Time to look within and see why there is IMO no team chemistry of if the coach can't bring them together. I could be wrong but the Timberwolves had either the lowest payroll or close. One difference is they seemed to gel together. Players or Coaches responsible? Would be nice to get a player like Nelson Cruz or Torri Hunter for the young players. Back when could watch the players went to one of those two for feedback. Both had inspiring careers. Seems like they had a pitcher like that where the players were loving the feedback.
  16. MABB1959
    If the Pirates starting pitcher hadn't GIVEN them 3 runs in the first , there never would have been a 10th inning.
  17. MABB1959
    I think they spend big to improve offense or go with the AAA potential. They do have money to spend. They cut because of a TV deal that they eventually secured so that money should be available. They need to find at least 1st base/DH power hitters if not 2. Time to give Martin a long term look Need to see what Brooks Lee and/or Gonzalez have Time to give up on Wallner, Farmer, Vasquez and Julien. Seem Kirloff may be done too. I think it is a good time to see what the prospects have. IMO doubtful they will make the playoffs and if they do probably could not win a series with the offense they have right now. They should be able to be well over 500 in June with their schedule. If not time to clean up. Get us one power hitter and see what our prospects are ,made of.
  18. MABB1959
    SWR pitched like an ace and the offense AAA at best!
  19. MABB1959
    Wish they would give SWR the 7th and see what he has.
  20. MABB1959
    No hits from Correa, Burton or Lewis? What heck!!!
  21. MABB1959
    Because of yesterday I have been watching the strike zone and noticing many good pitches called strike and getting fouled off.
  22. MABB1959
    Liking SWR, it would be good if the offense could give him a few runs to take some of the pressure off.
  23. MABB1959
    Umpiring may be bad but they could try swinging at some of the good pitches and battle the close ones. IMO there is more watching good pitches going by.
  24. MABB1959
    The Twins don't like to pay good money so pretty sure his stay here won't go past his current contract. But that being said if they do sign him to a good amount we have to worry about his injury history.
  25. MABB1959
    The sad thing is the Twins won't spend on a good pitcher they may try to get one that probably wouldn't be any better than Lopez.
